It used to be a pub. The Sun Inn offered everything the traveller needed including accommodation and a beer garden behind the building. These days, pubs are being converted into residential homes and developers make sure that the yard behind is turned into accommodation too, rental or other.

The Bessemer process is a steel production method that is no longer used today. It is named after its developer Henry Bessemer, who developed it in England and patented it in 1856.
In the so-called Bessemer bulb, a cylindrical refractory vessel, air is blown through the very carbon-rich pig iron melted in the blast furnace. The carbon and other elements burn to form carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and other oxides. As a result, the temperature of the molten metal rises far above the melting temperature of the pig iron of 1,150 °C at least to that of the steel, which can be up to around 1,550 °C. When the carbon content in the iron has fallen below a certain value, steel has been produced from the pig iron. Experts can tell when the composition corresponds to the desired one by the color of the flame at the exit of the Bessemer bulb.
The Bessemer bulb is a so-called bottom-blowing converter. For the Bessemer method to work in the acidic process, the pig iron must be low in phosphorus and sulphur. Pig iron with this impurity was processed into steel in the Thomas bulb.

Shakespeare's Globe is a reconstruction of the Globe Theatre, an Elizabethan playhouse first built in 1599 for which William Shakespeare wrote his plays. Like the original, it is located on the south bank of the River Thames, in Southwark, London. The reconstruction was completed in 1997 and while concentrating on Shakespeare's work also hosts a variety of other theatrical productions. Part of the Globe's complex also hosts the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse for smaller, indoor productions, in a setting which also recalls the period.

The sodium acetate developer produces the coolest image tone in Kallitype.
One or the other user may well have doubts about this. If the results are not as cool as expected, this is not due to the developer but to the workflow. A really cool tone is only maintained if the print does not come into contact with tap water before fixing. If the print is rinsed with tap water after the developer or the clearing bath, the image tone will be significantly warmer. It is not a question of which shade is perceived as more pleasant, but rather an advantage to know how to control the colourfulness.
For toning before fixing (platinum, palladium, gold), a rinse cycle is advisable in order not to change the property of the toner by introduced acid. For all tonings after fixing, a cooler initial print has the advantage of a higher maximum blackening. This is not decisive for successful toning, but differences in hue and saturation become apparent.

A coworker and I went to see the Valley of Fire State Park for an afternoon. The park is a 1h drive north-east of Las Vegas, Nevada. He is our star developer, who is very productive, and comes up with creative ideas. I took this shot with his Xiaomi Redmi 5 mobile phone.
I processed a photographic and a paintery HDR photo from a single mobile phone exposure, merged them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive feedback.

Beginners in the technique of Kallitype often ask which developer they should choose.
Only a comparison of colour and tonal values with identical exposure time. To achieve the same level of blackness with the acetate developer, the exposure time would have to be slightly longer.

Every time I come to San Francisco, there is some kind of smart-ass billboard along the highway ... "ask your developer," it says.
Ask her what? Whether Twilio is better than some other provider? Whether the cloud is here to stay? Who comes up with these crazy signs?
Fortunately, it doesn't matter very much ... by the time I come back again, this billboard will have been replaced by something else just as mysterious.

In early November 2015, I flew from New York to San Francisco to take a weekend street-photography workshop under the tutelage of Eric Kim. As you might expect, I took gazillions of photos; but not all of them were specifically associated with the workshop itself. On the way out to San Francisco, I took a bunch of pictures with my iPhone; and during the weekend, I took a number of photos that had little or nothing to do with street-photography per se.
I’ll upload the photos in dribs and drabs during the next several days, and let you decide which ones are sufficiently interesting to warrant a second look…

The current century old Miami-Dade County Courthouse at 73 Flagler Street will see a new neighbor rise across the street; the new 474-foot-tall, 25-story Miami-Dade County Civil and Probate Courthouse was approved by the Miami-Dade Rapid Transit Developmental Impact Committee back in February of 2021. Designed by HOK, the 537,968-square-foot courthouse building is anticipated to become one of the tallest governmental-use towers in Miami.
Plenary Group, an Australian infrastructure investment firm, is the developer behind the proposals for the new courthouse under Plenary Justice Miami, LLC. The narrow piece of property is located within the western portion of Downtown Miami, also recognized as a part of the Central Business District, and in close proximity to the Government Center Metromover Station and the Interstate 95; bounded by Northwest 1st Avenue to the west, West Flagler Street to the south, Northwest 1st Street to the north and the HistroyMiami Museum to the south. Being that the property is owned by Miami-Dade County, developers had to submit a bid to be selected, where Plenary Group’s proposal was picked as the winner, likely due to the lower construction costs for the project. Other competing proposals were submitted by M-S-E Judicial Partners LLC and Sacyr Infrastructure USA.
Renderings from HOK reveal several elevations with offset window forms, creating a jagged-like texture from afar. The structure will be made of reinforced concrete and clad in what appears to be light-grey masonry with hints of metal trims scattered throughout the building and large floor-to-ceiling glazed windows. The eastern elevation facing the old courthouse features a slightly protruding volume enclosed in glass as well.
Likely due to minimizing construction costs, Miami-Dade County is permitting the project to proceed overriding several regulations. The parking garage will not require screening, and only 11% of the site will be open space whereas the requirement is typically 15%. A building’s facade normally requires 40% glazing, but in this case it will be at 27%. The proposed development can have blank walls facing the public without an artistic expressions such as mosaics or murals, and 0 site trees will be planted, whereas the required amount is 30.

The direct route from Scafell Pike to Scafell involves a rock climb called Broad Stand. As rock climbs go it is short and easy, but a non-climber would put himself in danger - a slip could be fatal. There are two routes for walkers: recommended is Lord's Rake, which follows a line across the crag, and many a walker might think that he was rock climbing here, it being a rough scramble passing through impressive terrain; the other, by way of Foxes Tarn, involves a greater loss of height and is much less interesting.
To anyone planning to visit this great place for the first time I would strongly recommend getting hold of Wainwright's Book 4 (The Southern Fells) and reading the relevant pages thoroughly before going. Of this walk he says "Medals have been won for lesser deeds" - in humour, of course.

Film: Svema KN-1 expired motion picture film, produced 03/1969 @EI12
Process: Soviet motion picture developer ST-3, self-mixed, 9 minutes @ 18*C.
Camera: Zenit E, Helios 44-2 lens,010 (UV) filter
Scanner: Optronics ColorGetter Falcon drum scanner, wet-mounted scan
I recently acquired a large can of Svema KN-1, which is a "normal" (i.e. not special, micro, high-contrast etc.) film with a native ISO of 12. It was stated as "designed for shooting subjects lit by bright daylight. Especially suitable for portraiture. Negatives allow you to make positives with a large increase. Will retain properties for two years."
So with a given two-year shelf life, I was curious to see in what condition a 51-year old film would be... I exposed a roll in my Zenit E/Helios 44-2, then processed using the specified developer which is fairly similar to D96. I was pleasantly surprised when the negative strip showed absolutely zero age-related fog.
The tones are gorgeous, and the film itself is virtually grainless. I am looking forward to using this a lot more!
